It is movement in the vertical direction. In 2-dimensional analytical geometry, it is the distance in the direction parallel to the y-axis.

Rise over run, generally change in y-coordinates divided by change in x-coordinates.


What are some real world applications of geometry?

Euclidean geometry has become closely connected with computational geometry, computer graphics, convex geometry, and some area of combinatorics. Topology and geometry The field of topology, which saw massive developement in the 20th century is a technical sense of transformation geometry. Geometry is used on many other fields of science, like Algebraic geometry. Types, methodologies, and terminologies of geometry: Absolute geometry Affine geometry Algebraic geometry Analytic geometry Archimedes' use of infinitesimals Birational geometry Complex geometry Combinatorial geometry Computational geometry Conformal geometry Constructive solid geometry Contact geometry Convex geometry Descriptive geometry Differential geometry Digital geometry Discrete geometry Distance geometry Elliptic geometry Enumerative geometry Epipolar geometry Euclidean geometry Finite geometry Geometry of numbers Hyperbolic geometry Information geometry Integral geometry Inversive geometry Inversive ring geometry Klein geometry Lie sphere geometry Non-Euclidean geometry Numerical geometry Ordered geometry Parabolic geometry Plane geometry Projective geometry Quantum geometry Riemannian geometry Ruppeiner geometry Spherical geometry Symplectic geometry Synthetic geometry Systolic geometry Taxicab geometry Toric geometry Transformation geometry Tropical geometry


What does rise mean in measuring?

In measuring, "rise" typically refers to the vertical distance between two points or the change in elevation along a straight line. It is often used in geometry, trigonometry, and construction to describe the upward movement or change in height.

When the discharge of a stream increases what happens to the streams width?

When stream discharge increases, more water is flowing through a corridor. To accommodate that, the water will rise in the channel. Depending on the geometry of the channel, the width of wetted water surface may increase as the water fills a different geometry. If the width of the cross-sectional geometry is constant, however, only depth will increase, along with velocity.


What is a characteristic of Euclidean geometry?

One main characteristic of non-Euclidean geometry is hyperbolic geometry. The other is elliptic geometry. Non-Euclidean geometry is still closely related to Euclidean geometry.


What is Euclidean geometry mean in math?

Euclidean geometry is the traditional geometry: it is the geometry of a plane surface, as developed by Euclid. Among other things, it is based on Euclid's parallel postulate which said (in effect) that given a line and a point outside that line there could only be one line through that point that was parallel to the given line. It has since been discovered that both alternatives to that postulate - that there are many such lines possible and that there are none - give rise to consistent geometries. These are non-Euclidean geometries.
